Nicely Feathered Nests

One of the many perks of being in power in DC is the very lucrative pension benefits our rulers have established for themselves. Coincidentally, it offers the best rewards to those who can stay in power the longest. What is completely missing from the benefits equation is any correlation to their performance. Crooks like Traficant and Torricelli are compensated exactly the same as those members who didn’t take as many bribes.

I guess it’s not much different from awarding the same retirement benefits to the law abiding former presidents as to those who committed perjury, raped interns and sold pardons.
